Alex and Brookes’ wedding day at Oak Crest Mansion in Pass Christian was a true Southern celebration filled with elegance, charm, and so much love. From the moment we arrived, there was a feeling of joy in the air that carried through the entire day from these two!

Working with Alex and Brookes was such a gift. They are the kindest, most gracious couple, and photographing their day felt like spending time with old friends. One of the things that stood out to me the most was how much Alex trusted me from the start of working together. Anytime I would ask her thoughts on anything she was so open to any idea that I had, agreed to any location that I knew would photograph well, etc. That level of trust made me feel so honored and inspired to work creatively and freely, and I think that trust shines through in every single image!

Brookes is such a gentleman and was just as easy-going as his bride. His groomsmen were all so nice to work with and our assistant photographer said they were all fun to be around. Such a treat on the big day when all the nerves are buzzing around to have a group like that for our man of the hour.

Oak Crest Mansion provided the perfect setting. The grand home and its lush grounds created a timeless backdrop for the ceremony, and the ballroom was absolutely made for a celebration. Classic details and elegant touches filled the space, creating a romantic atmosphere that felt both refined and deeply personal. This kind of style defines Alex to me! I described her a bit in her bridal session post and I think it’s the same for the wedding day, too!

The celebration continued into the night with music, dancing, and so many joyful moments. It was a day full of love and one I won’t soon forget. The Tip Tops Band were so much fun to listen to throughout the evening and seeing everyone have such a great time always makes for great photos to look back on.

To Alex and Brookes, thank you for allowing me to be part of your day! Your trust meant the world to me, and I’m so grateful to have captured these memories for you.
